Being an older person (76) simplifying life where possible is important to me and one of the reasons for streaming my music. Music streamer, dedicated DAC, integrated amp, CD burner, and a pair of speakers are all that is needed. No record or CD collection or the electronics to play them is needed. The CDs all have been down loaded to the music server and then sold or given away. We use Tidal and once they learn what you listen to through AI they post a daily collection of 10 songs similar to what you listen to. This opens up a whole world of new songs and artists to listen to. On forums like this one posters will occasionally post favorite songs they listen to, and instead of having to purchase and album or CD, just pull it up from the streaming service and your music world expands even more. Cost for a music system ranges from a few hundred $ to thousands of $$ depending on your budget. Figuring out what to buy can be intimidating but there are a lot of experience posters on these forums with good recommendations. Jump into the streaming pool you won't regret it.
Happy New Year,
Craig
